🚀 Senior Data Engineer | Scalable Cloud Pipelines • Data Streaming • Big Data Solutions

I’m a Spain-based Senior Data Engineer with a proven track record in designing, building, and optimizing large-scale data infrastructures across AWS, Databricks, and SQL ecosystems. My experience spans end-to-end ETL/ELT pipeline development, real-time data streaming, and big data analytics — always with a focus on performance, scalability, and business impact.

Over the past years, I have:

Built and maintained AWS-based ETL infrastructures using Apache Airflow on Linux EC2.
Designed data lakes with S3 + Athena and integrated RabbitMQ for high-volume streaming.
Led Databricks/Spark projects for large-scale transformations and analytics.
Deployed and managed Dockerized ML models in SageMaker for production.
Tuned SQL Server and Redshift environments for high-traffic analytics.
Mentored teams and delivered robust solutions under agile frameworks (Jira, ClickUp).

Core strengths:

Data Pipelining & Orchestration (Airflow, Spark, Kafka, Flink, dbt)
Cloud & Big Data Platforms (AWS, Databricks, Hadoop, Hive)
Data Streaming (RabbitMQ, real-time processing, concept drift research)
Database Optimization (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redshift)
Automation & Integration (FastAPI, web scraping, APIs)

Why work with me:

✅ Deep hands-on expertise with modern data ecosystems

✅ Strong research background in streaming & ML data adaptation

✅ Flexible part-time/remote availability across EU/US time zones

✅ Proven ability to translate complex requirements into scalable solutions

Whether you need a high-performance pipeline, cloud migration, or streaming data platform, I can integrate quickly, deliver fast, and ensure your data works harder for your business.

📍 Based in Spain — Available for remote projects worldwide.
